Featuring such groundbreaking artists as Atjazz, DJ Spinna, Miguel Migs, Fila Brazillia, Kevin Yost, Pepe Braddock, Landslide, and J Boogie, Om Records has come out with an excellent release of remixes. Mixed Illusions is a compilation of great mixes taken from Soulstice's initial 2001 release, Illusion. This is an excellent and lively recording that alternates between a downtempo disco vibe and a more lively club/dance kind of feel, with traces of chill-out and a more relaxed groove. The high points of this recording seem to be Atjazz's remix of "Colour" and DJ Spinna's remix of "The Reason," but it's Fila Brazillia's masterful remix and interpretation of "Wind" that truly highlights the recording. This is an excellent recording; Mixed Illusions definitely hits the mark, both in quality and in its collection of artists and tracks.
